Woo, Thanksgiving holiday was great! It's times like that when I just don't want to go back to school. Plus I have a French oral final and an AP Language TMA waiting for me. Wow, the funness.

Mrs. Vinson wasn't at school today, so once again Mrs. Bonaker led the chorus. Blech. So Meri and I spent the hour and a half passing notes. Turns out Mrs. Vinson got pretty sick and had to go to the hospital for some bloodwork, so I wonder what will happen to our performance on Wednesday night. Will we have to cancel it? Or maybe reschedule? I hope it gets cancelled; I'm not in the mood for a performance this week. We also have another one on Thursday, so I wonder if that will get cancelled too. Mrs. Vinson books us waaay too much, especially in December. I just wish Mrs. Bonaker wasn't our substitute; she's so freakin' annoying.

We're finally done with our Original Oratorys in Debate; mine was taped last Tuesday. Now we're working on Extemping, and I can tell I'm not gonna like it. It involves current events and politics and crap, and I really hate keeping up with that kind of stuff. At least we don't have to memorize a seven-page speech, though. I need to check my grade in that class to see if I'm missing anything.

We're having our French oral final tomorrow; it's a seven-minute oral interview with Mrs. Tymniak. The first two minutes are spent describing a picture in french, and believe me, those pictures aren't very busy. Mrs. Tymniak did say that we could make up a story for the picture once we were done describing its physical features, so that's good. The last five minutes of the interview are spent talking about what we did over the Thanksgiving holiday, what we used to do when we were little, a typical day, and what we plan on doing in the future. I'm a little nervous about it, and I hope I don't have to do mine until Wednesday. I need more time to look over my notes.

Today was a very long day. I'm not quite sure why--I guess it's because it was the first day back to school. I'm really happy that we have only three weeks until Christmas vacation. I'm definitely looking forward to the break.

I'm also looking forward to going to sleep tonight. I love sleep; I never have to think about the day at all at night. G'night everyone!
